Here is how you can efficiently fight the Diablo monster in Warzone 2.

Once you enter the portal, the game will transport you to a different arena with terrifying scenery.
The Butcher will be inside this place alongside an unending horde of zombies constantly trying to damage you and your teammates.
You must empty your magazines on the main boss from a distance to avoid taking direct damage.
However, you should also kill off the zombies as they drop crucial items like ammo and armor plates to bolster you for the fight.
You should maintain a direct line of sight with The Butcher, as the monster can sometimes charge directly toward you and deal lethal damage.
Once the health pool of the boss starts to drop, The Butcher will begin launching a few special attacks that affect a small area around it.
After you have completed the quest, you can pick up lots of loot and Souls from the boss alongside the Meat Hook item.

A warning will appear, notifying the players inside the arena to escape through the portal after The Butcher collapses. You can use the portal and redeploy from the top of the altar to parachute to your next preferred location.
